First modern GP

The watch is great! The date change is a bit finicky. Mine seems to jump the date when pulling out the crown during the PM hours and setting it. Not sure if that's normal but runs and looks great!

Congrats and a fine choice! Mine says hi : ...

It rare that my AD gets these pre owned and I happen to be in the market for a second watch when I saw it. Tried it on and after years of evey brand you just know! This was perfect. Looks great. Movement finishing is seriously up there with the best of th... 

After a year of convincing myself

The 42 mm was too large for my 7 inch wrist , I finally went and tried it on, pre-owned. One of the best choices I ever made. Itโ€™s an awesome watch Iโ€™ve worn on weekends and also in the office. Previously I owned the white dial , in 38 mm. It wore like a ... 

Thanks

Not normal for the date to jump when pulling out the crown. You can try letting the power run down and then rotating the hands for 48 hours to have the date change they way. That sometimes solves date wheel/ hear issues. If not, I suggest taking back to y... 

Has not happened again

It's running basically dead on as well. So far enjoying it!

I don't need a week to know

The GP is a top tier, accurate and most of all comfortable watch. I have found myself looking at the dial in different lighting conditions and popping it off wrist to look at the movement. It's finished to a level above Piaget, Cartier and Chopard and the...  

Uber cool shot!!!

The 42 mm blue, black and silver dials

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : April 28th, 2024-12:36
All have the โ€œ1791โ€ on the dial. All the others have the single bridge. The only answer I could get was that GP is still clearing old stock. I donโ€™t understand that because it has been about 17 months since the single bridge came out for the copper dial. ... 

Seems strange

The bridge logo has nothing to do with a Laureato! I guess it doesn't not matter but you might be right. I see the bridge on the new green dial as well. I prefer the 1791!

The single bridge is a GP brand logo

I recommended to them to change the 1791 to the single bridge for all. Used to be only certain models of the laureato such as the onyx dial โ˜บ๏ธ

... Girard Perregaux Laureato Date Defect... Cheers, Alex

Looked it up and mine was doing just that

 
 By: ripper444 : April 29th, 2024-18:03
The trick is just don't use the quick date change during PM hours or remove some slack with the crown before position 2. Problem solved! Btw my model is from 2019 and it's one of the most accurate watches I have owned over a 5 day period. Basically almost...
